Hmmm... I think I see what you're saying. I guess it really is GPL. Actually, I decided to try to implement it in Java. I know, Java is slower than C++ but the standard libraries seem to be easier to work with instead of programming for Windows or Linux. I'm learning C++ right now but I've had more experience with Java. I think you chose a good middle ground Mark. I'll take another look at TNL.

I have been using the commonc++ library, its at GNU http://www.gnu.org/software/commoncpp/

Check it out, it is stream based, and I actually got a simple echo server done in about 42 lines.

It also includes Threads as well, and a few other features that might be handy

did you check out RakNet?

The funny thing is, people (and I'm guilty) choose libraries based on their licenses, when there's really a minimal chance that their work will be successful.

What do I mean? Well, Firefly2442 wants an open source library, usable for a commercial product. What are the chances that he will produce a commercial product and have to worry about the license? If they're close to nil, why worry about the license?

That make sense?

Hehe. Not likely considering my current skills. :)
